Gourmet Settings

Frequently Asked Questions

• What Gourmet Settings products does Inhaven carry?

  Inhaven carries Gourmet Settings flatware in patterns including Savannah, Gusto, Strand, Celebration, Feast, Revel, Lance, and Oxford, in 20-piece sets, a 60-piece Gusto service for 12, open stock utensil packs of 24, and serving piece packs of 8, plus the Lotus white porcelain dinnerware collection: dinner plates, salad plates, pasta bowls, all-purpose bowls, and mugs in sets of 4.
• Why does open stock flatware matter for rentals?

  Teaspoons and forks vanish. Open stock packs of 24 across the Savannah and Gusto patterns let you replace exactly what is missing and keep every drawer at standard, instead of buying full sets for parts.
• What is the Lotus dinnerware collection?

  Lotus is Gourmet Settings' white porcelain dinnerware line: dinner and salad plates, pasta bowls, all-purpose bowls, and mugs in sets of 4. Bright white porcelain suits every interior, photographs cleanly, and pairs with any of the flatware patterns for a complete, coordinated table.
• Which flatware pattern should I choose?

  Both Savannah and Gusto are the clean, contemporary workhorses for most properties. Whichever you pick, standardize the pattern per property so open stock replacements always match.

  Inhaven members save up to 53% off MSRP on Gourmet Settings products, with wholesale pricing and case pack quantities built for professional vacation rental operations.

  In-stock Gourmet Settings items ship within 2 to 4 business days and typically arrive within 5 to 10 business days depending on destination, with oversized or freight items sometimes requiring additional transit time.

• Can I request Gourmet Setting product samples before I purchase?

  Yes, samples are available on all flatware and dinnerware lines. Please contact Inhaven to request product samples.
• Is thicker flatware better?

  Not necessarily. Greater thickness usually means a higher price, but thicker does not always mean better; sometimes a slimmer piece simply feels better in the hand. The real test is how it feels to use. Whatever profile you choose, Gourmet Settings flatware is built to stand up to whatever guests put it through. You can even scoop hard ice cream with the spoons.
• Will flatware develop marks over time?

  Yes, and that is normal. Any flatware, regardless of finish or grade, will mark with use. Gourmet Settings considers this patina part of the beauty: a table that looks lived in and loved rather than untouched. For a rental, it means everyday guest use is not ruining your flatware, it is finishing it.
• What does stainless steel actually mean?

  To be called stainless, a steel alloy must contain at least 11.5 percent chromium. Gourmet Settings flatware is made with a minimum of 18 percent chromium and labeled either 18/0 or 18/10. The 18/10 grade adds nickel, which increases resistance to corrosion. Both grades are meticulously made to last a lifetime with proper care. One honest note: stainless stains less, not never. Stains should wash away with a soapy cloth or stainless steel cleaner.
• How should flatware be cared for?

  Stainless steel can last a lifetime with proper care. Avoid prolonged soaking, damp storage, abrasive cleaners, and steel wool. Wash with a liquid or cream detergent and dry after washing. Stains and spots come out with a soapy cloth or stainless steel cleaner. Put these few lines in your housekeeping standards and your flatware investment outlives the furniture.
